Absolutely, all Yamaha outboards more than 20 hp should be hit with a
$20K/year surtax. And let's tax inefficient V8 SUVs while we're at
it, especially Toyota 4 Runners and people who live in homes with more
than 1,000 sq ft per person. Then we can start on private aviation of
all types.

Better yet, let's go to fuel rationing. Bring in Fidel, he'll know
how to implement all this.
